A little bit of this with a dash of that

So I haven’t really been doing anything lately, and that’s a serious statement. I just work and have family time and game when I can. I suppose this is more of an update than anything else, just a page to tack into the journal of my blogging/social life. To be honest, I really don’t frequent this site too much since BaD has been over, and honestly I don’t think many people actually come here in general anymore; at least not like they used to within the last few years. Perhaps I’m just not used to seeing as many new faces and less of the older and more familiar faces though, or it’s possible that I’m just getting senile in my nearing of old age.

Last week (Or maybe the week before?), I finally was able to game with Ashley and a good friend of mine. I know Ash and I have been in the talks about setting it up, but it was just kind of hard to get on the same schedule. But thank god I did invite her, during one level of Resident Evil: ORC, I died 17 times. It was only after my 17th death that we realized we didn’t have to fight this certain individual, we just had to close in on him/her and it triggered a cut scene for us to move onto the next area; EPIC FAIL!

Other than RE: ORC, I haven’t really been playing too much. I’ve been dabbling with Dark Souls as usual and I’ve occasionally been playing The Cursed Crusade, but nothing too much. I’ve been entirely too busy with Cooper to be able to get back into my active gaming habits. On the plus side though, Cooper is a HUGE Metallica fan and loves listening to me play guitar so I’ve been able to really hit the frets pretty hard in the last couple weeks!

In some other news; throughout my usual digging through the internet I found that the Kinect may actually have some cool stuff coming its way! There’s a Dragon Ball Z game on the horizon which sounds promising. Its biggest boast is the 50 playable characters as well as the 100 different moves that can be performed. I’ve honestly never been much of a DBZ fan, but it sounds cool regardless!

The Kinect is also getting a Skyrim update, for free!! Supposedly it’s adding over 200 voice commands including Dragon Shouts and companion controls, hotkey equipping, menu navigation, and basic menu manipulations. It sounds cool in concept, and I can’t wait to see what all they decided to do with the Kinect functionality!

That’s about it really though. Like I said earlier; I really don’t have much to type here, I just feel obligated to post tid-bits of rambling for you all to wade through. Have a great weekend everyone!

Glad you're having fun with ORC Chris. It looks pretty enjoyable to me but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't anticipating RE 6 a bit more. lol. But we both agree on the awesome potential of Borderlands 2 so if there's going to be one game we team up on it'll be that one!
